Curt: Is there a player in the NFL we can look at that compares to your playing style?Mike: Kellen Winslow or Jason Witten.

Curt: OK, Mike you have the whole NFL reading why should they take a shot on Mike Caussin?Mike: I am underrated, I have yet to come close to my potential as a football player and I won't stop working til I am the best at what I do, which is playing the game with attitude, physicality, focus and passion.
